BG Scoring

So I have been a battle ground individual for over 4 years now and while I am not a fan of 2 team, even though I win fairly often, My biggest issue Is the scoring.
Blessed Assistance awards a ridiculous score for doing almost nothing.
I recently did one where the top score was 11100 points for 900k in heals 51 instances of BA.
Now take that score and apply it to a DM There is literally no possible way to score that in DM now the max you could achieve as a killer would be 37 kills and 1 assist or some combination of. Yet CK and Dom being the prevalent form of Competitive match promotes High health no damage healer builds thus making BGs tedious and oppressive for many players.
Add to this that Shield stacking is insane and you wind up with long drawn out non Competitive BGs.
Yes I said long drawn out BGs are non Competitive, When no one can die and your in the millions of damage range while healing is no where near that, You have an environment that is not enjoyable or winnable.
More to the point you have created a Vacuum in which only Healers thrive. New players fail. And Vets just don't care anymore.

ShutUpitsRed✭✭✭✭✭I can't say I've ever played a bg where people weren't dying enough lol. Maybe the scoring for healing is a bit overtuned but saying healing is doing "almost nothing" while also saying those healers make it difficult to get kills is a bit contradictory, no? You can think the scoring is imbalanced for the role without disparaging healers in general.1 -

✭I play support in other games like Overwatch and Marvel Rivals and I am pretty good.
If you want to win you should try to get after the healer who is ruining your match or counterplay with your team.
If you can't kill them then that means that either your healer is outplaying you or the other team is better playing as a team with better grouping, positioning and teamplay.
Either way, in both cases that team deserves the win.0
